Don Lipson  /  D-Lip  /  guitar, vocals (and a bit of bass)
Cubicle worker by day, rock ‘n’ roller by night, Don vents his frustrations with the corporate world by turning up his amp way too loud.  He is a founding member of the band and some might say the glue that holds it together.  Although... since practices are in his basement, maybe the others are simply humouring him.  Don was in his last band - Rough Edges - for over 10 years.  Like , Rough Edges was mainly a “hobby band” and unfortunately delusions of grandeur and crappy attitude led to the group’s demise in 1998.
 
 


Ted Millar  /  Edgar   /  vocals and percussion
Ted fronted "The Remedials", a band that had their time in the limelight during the early 80’s.  One of their original songs was released internationally on a Playboy Magazine “garage band” compilation album.  Along with Don, Ted is a former member of Rough Edges.  Ted runs his own business, ERM Design.
 
 


John Dixon / J.D. / guitar, vocals (feedback)
After 4 years in bands in New Brunswick during the mid 80's J.D. returned to The Montreal area and really learned (and still learning) how to play guitar. J.D. played  in the house Band at JD's Roadhouse in Dorval with fellow  member Andy Jameson who also plays Guitar, lapsteel, keyboards, kazoo and anything else he can get a sound out of in J.D.'s and good friend/songwriter Chris Fuzessy's project band "Likwid Kniple"
 
 


Andy Jameson / A Jam / Bass, vocals, guitar
     Andy spent about 16 years as a professional struggling musician. Most notably, 7 years with Canadian underground legends, Jerry Jerry and the Sons of Rhythm Orchestra. After a couple of albums, a couple of videos, and a shipload of touring around Canada and the U.S.A., he worked as a session player/sound engineer/lighting guy at Montreal Based L.A. Records, working on several CDs by artists in and around the Montreal and Ottawa areas. A fan of "bad notes played tastefully ", Andy now works as a lab technician, and continues his quest for a bass amp that just friggin' works.
 
 


Pete Chan / Pedro / drums, vocals
Also known as “Never miss a beat Pete”, his drumming is versatile, powerful & steady. Pete worked the ‘wedding band circuit’ for many years and definitely knows his rumba from his samba. Believe or not, this can come in handy in a Rock Band.  Pedro loves his cottage more than band, but that’s OK… at least its not winterized.
 
 
 
 


Nick Catalano  /  Nick  /  drums
One of Quebec’s leading musicians during his glory days, Nick has worked with bands much tighter than .  He has played and toured with Daniel Lavoie, Boule Noire, Nanette Workman and other star performers.  A hater of bad notes, Nick is “just sitting in” with the band for a while to get the rust out of his joints.  He was also known to sit in with Rough Edges.  Nick is the proprietor of Beatnick Records in Montreal.

Tim Alleyne  /  Tim-A  /  keyboards
Tim is Montreal’s in-demand ‘board guy and has been in more bands than he can count… Not that he can’t remember them all – he just can’t count that high.  Notable among these was Rough Edges (as a member at large), Barb and Bar-Band (with Nick on drums) and most recently Tango Luna.
